You are most definitiley wrong. It was in fact the Christian community beginning with the very witnesses of Christ while He walked amongst them who placed a stamp of approval upon which letters and gospels were acceptable, and they based that upon one sure thing, 'does the letter or gospel focus upon Him and Him crucified and risen for our salvation and justification?' When you make such a statement try to stand, you had better be ready to post what you assume to support your lie.

I saw the Divinci code and I thought it was really good. No one said it was a documentary AND It very much had a sureal-like quality, very fanciful. It's very apparent that Ron Howard understood the story to be fiction and he conveyed that through the way it was shot.
For example, At points in the movie when the actors were speaking of the past, we saw hazy reenactments play around them. In one scene, Tom Hanks and Audrey Tautou as their respective characters walked into a church, accompanied by a procession of knights... because Tom Hanks (as Robert Langdon)was telling a story about the knights.
In another part while Hanks was trying to crack a code, a sort of virtual simulation appeared in the scene representing what was going on in his head.
The movie had a very pretend quality, it never professed to be realistic.
